It was down hill, but it was faster than I wanted to go.

When I had my first e-bike 20-years ago (that's right folks, 20-years ago), it was just a 600 watt hub motor connected to a thumb throttle, powered by SLA batteries (big and heavy). The thing would still go 20 mph without peddling. I bought one for the girlfriend (now wife), and an electric scooter too.

1500 watts on a Walmart bike....It's scary fast....35 mph, and you want to really be paying attention at that speed. It's a blast, just got back from a 12 mile ride.
That motor is huge!

It is!! It has the controller built into the motor too, so a lot less wiring to deal with. Almost 700 miles on it.

@Metasynth had over 2,000 miles on his of the same brand last year...I wonder if it's still going?!
That make sense, mines not much larger than the cassette. Controller is under the seat. We just rolled over 600km (370 miles)

I'd kinda like to get one for my mountain bike, so that I can poach trails that I can't take my gas dirt bike on without risking arrest. What brand is that?

Voilamart. The price has gone up a bit....I paid $240

Still at $350, that's a pretty sweet deal. That's about the same price as the aftermarket exhaust I want to get for my gas bike. How much more was the battery pack you got?

This also went up a few bucks, but not much, and I have been really happy with the battery. I probably have about 30+ miles range with no pedaling, and it is hilly here. Seems like an honest seller. My charger died and he replaced it under warranty, which I believe is 2 years.
